Last night while indulging in the latest episode of my favorite NBC television series, The Blacklist, a new TV spot from Google aired and caught my eye. The one-minute spot circled around the idea of “A question is the most powerful force in the world.” Overtaking the TV screen, the commercial demonstrates in full animation the search possibilities of the Google App, highlighting such features as song identification, maps integration, audio feedback, speech translation and reminders.

You may still be skeptical of the new MacBook, but you have to admit this is one beautiful little machine. In an original post by Mr. Dom Esposito on 9to5Mac, the new 12 inch beauty is unboxed and benchmarked.

Meet Milton – the newest member to the misguided and misunderstanding cast of characters in Esurance’s ongoing national ad campaign.

Esurance continues their “Insurance for the Modern World” campaign with yet another stab at Geico, claiming that “fifteen minutes for a quote isn’t how it works anymore.” The new 30 spot airing on national t.v. introduces a new, friendly character named Milton.

Who’s your favorite character from the ‘Insurance for the Modern World’ campaign?
